OO writes poetry? (Translation update) |
|
|
Yeah, I used to when I was younger. Pretty horrible shit really. Anyhow, eight months ago when I got to Guatemala I said I'd write a poem in Spanish when I felt comfortable with my SKILLS. Here it is. It's for my childhood, my failures, my dreams, and even my reputation here at Gamingforce.
===
Me dicen que soy un gran ser
Pero a veces me siento como un insecto ver
Dicen que tengo un gran corazon
Aunque a veces no me sale mas que razon
Me dicen que tengo una gran paz
Mas en la vida no siempre me siento capaz
Dicen que hablo como los sabios
Pero perjuicios han salido de mis labios
Dicen que doy ejemplo a los demas
Pero no entiendo, a veces soy tan contumaz
Asi me dicen que soy la libertad
Pero por mi ya no quisiera la soledad
Solo dicen y redicen
-Pero por favor dejenme ver
Que no soy lo que me dicen
Y me duele saber lo que puedo ser

Non rhyming translated version.
===
They say I'm a great person
But sometimes I feel like a crawling insect
They say I have a great heart
Even if sometimes only common sense comes out
They tell me I have a great inner peace
But I'm not always able to feel this way
They say I speak like a wise man
But judgments have left my lips
They say I give a good example to others
But I don't understand, sometimes I'm so stubborn
They tell me I represent freedom
But were it to me I wouldn't be alone anymore.
They just tell me and retell me
-But won't you please let me take the time to see
That I'm not what they say I am
And it hurts me to know what I could be.
